Know the feeling- thankfully I have a good doctor who has been really good about the BT meds. Gotta love that. And we have a really horrid day today cold, windy and threatening to rain. A good day to stay by the fire and play on the puter!

Thanks! But I forgot to plan. I get same amount of BT each month no matter what. So I have to look at calendar to see what will happen. Nov is almost here so it's not so bad. Just wish I would remember and get those filled all year round.

Uhm... I consider myself to know a lot of things. And, please, forgive me. But, what is BT?

What state do you live in? I live in Iowa. I have a lot of trouble with the cold. Sad And, the dampness. Sad And, the extreme heat. Sad Hmm... come to think about it. I really only like the 'perfect' days. LOL!! You know... like 75 to 80 degrees, with no humidity. heeeheee

I live in FL and when we get fronts that come thru and the temps drop a little, yeah I can always tell because the pain in my leg shoots up the chart. Thankfully though I don't have to deal with really cold days or snow, I couln't imagine the pain I would be in then.
My CRPS has been in remission for about 4 yrs now!!!

There was a high of 73 degrees today. Tomorrow it's to be a high of around 50 degrees, with tomorrow night being a low of 30 degrees. Sad Also, tomorrow- we're to have rain, turning into freezing rain, and then into snow. We need the moisture, cause it's been like 3 months since we've had any. But, Youza! Could we skip the cold temps and snow? - I know... it's only going to get worse.

Hey discgolfwiz- Not sure what part of Florida you're in. But, I went with my dad down there last year for a little while. We stayed at Panama City Beach for a a month. Br! Add the wind, and any mist or rain- that's just about as hard on the body, pain wise, as Iowa! We then went to Clearwater Beach. That was MUCH better!!

Can't wait to leave here and head down there. Just waiting for my dad to get the okay from his doc. Was to be Sunday, but will more than likely be another week or two. The sooner we leave here though, the better.
